I apologize, I am not being clear. The minimum wage in the United States refers to the minimum hourly wage.

@Orca: Try responding to mine and then justifying yourself.

Oh, my bad, minimum hourly wage... That's not something I usually hear about, so I have to check.

Can't find it for Portugal, so I guess it's just a constant minimum of 450 €, the minimum salary? That's $637, but keep in mind this is one of the cheapest EU countries to live in (at least before all the Eastern European countries joined in).

edit - btw, in Portugal you get 14 salaries per year including vacation subsidy etc.

I think it varies widely between countries.
